Some Images of Astoria & LIC

Hello everyone I hope you had a great day and as promised in my last post I have uploaded a few recent photos from Astoria and Long Island City. Both of these neighborhoods I grew up in and are rich in culture, ethnicity and history and some great restaurants too, and the reason my focus is on urban photography. I also shoot flowers, landscapes, wild life but 90% of my work is of the urban flavor.

As I’ve said in previous posts I am a new emerging photographer (a.k.a. amateur) and I don’t have a lot of gear….yet. When I go shooting, in addition to my one camera (Sony A 300 DSLR) and my one lens (Sigma 18mm-200mm f3.6-6.3), I have a tripod (one also), filters, extra memory card and battery, and a screaming pink back pack with goodies, water and other essentials. You can’t miss me. I’m either riding the buses, subways, trains or walking and prefer to travel light.

My photos show a unique and interesting perspective on the urban landscape and I have picked a few that I think you will like. Enjoy and let me know what you think of my work.
